Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0817331A2] To provide flexibility for a guided terminal belt (B), a roller member (45) is used to feed a terminal carrier (T4). The roller member (45) has a contact area (45B) to make rolling contact with the carrier (T4). The contact area presses the carrier against an abutment face (42) as the carrier advances in a feeding direction. Feeding is performed when a terminal fitting (T) of the terminal belt is in a released or disengaged state. This makes feeding possible regardless of the type of terminal fitting to be crimped, thus, providing flexibility for the terminal belt to be guided. <IMAGE>
